Exhibition Dates: August 5-August 23, 2019

For the month of August, the Frank-Ratchye Project Space is excited to present new works by Makiko Harris that explore material value, aesthetic definition, irreverence, and the rejection of technological sterility. By merging broad and fast gestural paint strokes with methodically-placed fabrics that obscure and expand the visual borders of the canvas, Makiko Harris: Silent Conviction asks us to critique the ways we accept and participate in consumerist, cultural, and societal value systems.

The Frank-Ratchye Studio Artist Project Space provides a gallery for Root Division artists to connect and engage in dialogue around the work being made on site, and to exhibit their art to the public. The Project Space is located on our rear mezzanine, and is free and open to the public during gallery hours in conjunction with the current exhibition. This space is made possible with the generous support of Ed Frank and Sarah Ratchye.
